This study evaluated the relationships between stages of change and related health behaviors in a population of smokers forced to quit smoking. Participants were 10,136 Air Force recruits who were in basic military training (BMT) and who were not allowed to smoke because of a ban on smoking during BMT. Participants were surveyed about their smoking history, their motivation and readiness to remain smoke free after BMT, and their behavior on 5 target health areas. Results indicated that smoking history best predicted stage of change. Though there were few gender differences, several ethnic differences emerged. These results suggest that, although stages of change involve both a cognitive and behavioral component, removing the behavioral component (smoking) through a smoking ban does not reduce the construct validity of the transtheoretical model.
本研究评估了在一群被迫戒烟的吸烟者中，行为改变阶段与相关健康行为之间的关系。参与者为10136名空军新兵，他们正在接受基础军事训练（BMT），由于BMT期间禁止吸烟，他们不被允许吸烟。对参与者进行了调查，询问他们的吸烟史、在BMT后保持无烟状态的动机和准备情况，以及他们在5个目标健康领域的行为。结果表明，吸烟史最能预测行为改变阶段。虽然性别差异很少，但出现了一些种族差异。这些结果表明，尽管行为改变阶段涉及认知和行为两个组成部分，但通过吸烟禁令消除行为组成部分（吸烟）并不会降低跨理论模型的结构效度。
